ProtldlngS tm pos ium Sumbmr A to m K e h a n g s a a n P e r ta m a (J u la t 1992)fSSA UKM KAMPUS SABAH (MAKETA8. U , M M 2 : 13 7 - H i )

The results which show high am ounts of am m oniacal nitrogen, chloride and oil and grease, indicate th a t the river Is polluted m ostly in the form of organic po llu tan ts . High counts of fecal conforms indicate th a t the source of the organic pollutants is mostly of h um an or anim al origins b u t anim al husb an d ry is lim ited to poultry and pig farming activities a t Kampung Baru Subang.

It can be sum m erised th a t the major source of pollution is from the Sungai Kayu Ara sub-w atershed (Station 1) relative to the Sungai D am ansara sub -w atershed as shown is their respective resu lts . New projects w ithin the Sungai Kayu Ara sub- w atershed th a t will increase th e pollu tan ts load of Sungai D am ansara include the new township of Bandar Utama and the Troplcana G olf R esort. The developm en t of th e degazetted Sungai Buloh Forest Reserve into a large self-containing township in the next five y e a rs a lso will In crease th e to ta l po llu tan ts load of Sungai D am ansara. The form er forest reserve is d rained by th ree tr ib u ta r ie s of th e river nam ely S ungai R um put, Sungai Takil and Sungai Tam bul.

The quality of the river w ater a t the in take point canno t fully comply with the Class III category of the Interim Water Quality S ta n d a rd s for M alaysia e spec ia lly for am m oniacal n itrogen and fecal collforms. C lass HI is the least s tr in g en t for w ater supply which needs extensive trea tm en t.

Case 2: Sungai Skudai

S ungai S kudai Is a sm all river w ith a com paratively sm all w atershed s itu a ted In so u th e rn Jo h o r D arul Ta’zlm. The length of th e river Is ab o u t 47 km form its source in the Yule Catto oil palm esta te a t Sedenak to Its estuary In the S tra its of Johore (Selat Tebrau). The river is an Im portant w ater supply source for the Public Utilities Board. Singapore (PUB), with the w ater Intake and trea tm en t p lan t beside the Senal Highway before the Skudai township. The maximum capacity of the trea tm en t p lan t is ab o u t 40 mgd (million gallons per day) b u t It Is u sually processes only betw een 10 to 20 mgd. About 60 per cent of the finished w ater Is for the Jo h o r B haru residen ts.

PUB has been regularly com plaining abou t the Increasing deterioration of the raw water quality In the form of ammoniacal n itrogen (AN) and phenolic com pounds. Therefore, a special s tudy on the quality of the river water and the Inventory of major po llu tio n sou rces was ca rried o u t in November 1989. A nalysis of the raw d a ta o f the eight m onitoring sta tions w as also done so as to escerta ln the m ost polluted segm ents of the river. An au tom atic w ater sam pler was used to sam ple w ater a t the raw w ater Intake a t PUB for 24 hours. The samples were analysed for BODs (Biochemical Oxygen Demand for 5 days a t 20°C) and am m oniacal nitrogen.

The pollution problem of Sungai Skudai is trem endous because the w atershed la an Im portant developing a rea for Johore with a population of ab o u t 60.000 in five major townships and residential area (Kulal, Kulal Besar. Kulal Baru, Saleng dan Senal), an Industrial area (Senai Industrial Estate), an open solid w aste dum p, plg-farm s and mixed single in d u strie s (Figure 13). With the recen t economic upsw ing, the area Is se t for rapid developm ent as it will be receiving the growth spill over from the other surburb la surrounding Jo h o r Bahru. The growth. If no t In the Industria l sector, tends to be In the form of sup p o rt services such as residential a reas.

As in the case of m ost small townships in the country, the preferred m ethod of sewage trea tm en t in the Sungai Skudai w atershed Is by using sep tic and Imhoff tanks with a sprinkling of o ther m ethods such as oxidation ponds and activated sludge. The Infam ous “hanging" la trines b u ilt over d ra in s or s tream s are also used by some residen ts. The th ree pig farm s in the a rea do not have proper treatm ent facilities except for settling ponds.

Figures 14 to 21 Indicate th a t the w ater quality n ear the source a t Sedenak Is qu ite good a s the dissolved oxygen level (DO) Is high while o ther pollution indicator param eter such a s BODs, oil and grease, am m oniacal nitrogen and turbidity are low. The w ater quality changes for the worse w hen the river p a sse s th ro u g h d ra in s carrying effluents from factories and drains

Most Industries were not complying with the organic p a ram ete r of Biochemical Oxygen D em and (BOD) and Chem ical Oxygen D em and (COD). Lead, which is im portant in public considerations was 7 to 100 times higher than the stipulated standard. The culprit is a well known battery m an u fac tu rer. D ischarge form a glove making factory was high for both the organlcs and zinc, while two textile p la n ts effluent was high in organic w astes, oils and grease and phenol.

Other Present and Future Polluted Water C atchm ent Areas

T he rivers d isc u sse d a re som e of the problem atic w atersheds a t the present time b u t there are m any rivers th a t can be categorized as such and there are m any potential w atersheds th a t m ight be added to the list un less som e action Is taken.

One of the well known problem atic rivers Is Sungai Linggi In Negeri Sem bilan which includes the sta te capital, Serem ban. Its suburbs and most of the state 's industries in Its w atershed . The raw w ater supply a t its Intake is usually high in the organic content and the finished water noxious bu t th in g s a re im prov ing w ith th e fu tu re cen tralised sew erage system for the city and more advanced w ater trea tm en t with the Incorporation of the ozonation technology.

Sungai Buluh in the sta te of Selangor is a n o th e r po llu ted raw w ater supp ly . H ousing e s ta te s and various developm ents

such as in d u strie s and the construc tion of the Klang-Rawang highway rendered the water quality poor, w ith trem endously high suspended solids and organic constituen ts. At the tim e of the w riting of th is paper the w ater Intake a t Paya J a ra s is closed and Is to be used only for tra in in g purposes.

F u tu re problem s re la ted to w ater supply will be concen tra ted In the various s ta tes with high developm ent poten tial. Sungai Selangor is a river th a t may be polluted in the fu tu re a s the Selangor slate governm ent is keen on locating various industries in Its w atershed . The decision may Jeopardize the Sungai Selangor W aler Scheme which Is not yet in operation .

In Johore state , the unchecked growth of waler polluting Industries w ithin sensitive water catchm ent a reas will cause problems to this highly industrialized sta te . The best strategy- for any sensitive w ater ca tchm ent It to ensure th a t only compatible Industries are allowed to operate In It.

IIB Recreational use with body contact

III Water supply III - extensive treatmentrequiredFishery III - common, of economic value.and tolerant speciesLivestock drinking

IV * Irrigation

V None of the above

Class I represents water bodies of excellent quality . S tandard are set for the conservation of natural environment in its undisturbed states. Waler bodies such as those in the national park areas, fountain-heads, and in high-land and uninhabited areas com e under this category where strictly no discharge of any kind is permitted. Water bodies in this category meet the most stringent requirements ion human health and aquatic life protection.

Class 1IA represents water bodies of good quality, most existing raw water supply sources come under this category. In pratice. no body-contact activity is allowed in these waters for the p revention of transm ission o f probable human pathogens. There is need to introduce another class for water bodies not used for water supply but of similar quality which may be referred to as for class IIB. The determination of Class IIB standards is based on cr i te r ia for rec rea tiona l use and p ro tec tion of sensitive aquatic species.

Class III is defined with the primary objective o f protecting common and moderately tolerant aquatic species o f economic value. Water under this classifiction may be used for water supply with extensive/advanced treatment. This class of water is also defined to suit livestock drinking needs.

Class (V defines water quality required for major agricultural activities which may not cover minor applications to sensitive crops.

Class V represents other waters which do not meet any o f the above uses.
